Brown Paper Bag Harry's Farm

Located in Franklin, CT, this farm has been operating for five years, providing a diverse selection of vegetables and fruits through a CSA program. Recent health issues have led to reduced tilling and production, prompting a co-op arrangement with three other local farmers.

The farm employs organic methods, avoiding herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides. They focus on enriching the soil during the off-season and use sustainable practices to maintain soil health. Fruits are sourced from a local orchard, with melons and blueberries being the only unsprayed varieties.

The farm's CSA program runs for 15 weeks, offering a dozen different fruits, herbs, and vegetables each week, along with recipes. CSA shares cost $575 per year, with payment plans and early payment discounts available. Pick-ups are on Monday evenings, and the preseason income supports early Spring planting and soil enrichment.
